NYTimes Vid: Why Rappers Stopped Writing: The Punch-In Method

[Playaz Eyez]

nikka why are you acting obtuse? Most of this board are grown ass men with families and shyt. I’m not posting this shyt for a review. This is a thread about how the recording process has changed over time. It’s simply a window into how newer rappers record. I’ve made a few post in this thread and this is just a visual to go with what I said in a few post

You seem to be very angry. Is that YOU doing that method or something? It just sounds flat out terrible if so. Like Young Thug stubbing his toe.

@maxamusa appreciate the actual answer

nikka I’d slap the shyt out your goofy ass in real life. Always one nikka trying to be extra cool. nikkas actually trying to have a real hip hop discussion amongst all the fukkery for once and here your goofy ass comes just being silly for no reason. And I sign rappers, I don’t rap silly ass nikka

So this is why rap sons literally don’t be saying nothing. Brehs recording random bars sticking it together

The first time I saw Lil Fame punchin in during the recording session of TrillStatik I was shocked. Never would have ever thought

Yeah he's done it for a long time. FWIW I don't think he did it way back in the day, but definitely started doing it in the late 00's and early 2010's. I always assumed he started doing it when his weight and health got really bad

Yea that’s what I was thinking. He probably lost breath control when he got fat. Good thing he is in good health now. Hopefully stops punching in lol

This makes sense.

If most rappers use this method to record, it's no wonder the genre has stagnated and regressed compared to earlier days when quality was a given.
